What is a scar-prone constitution?

Generally speaking, a scar-prone constitution refers to a special physical condition in which an individual tends to develop keloids even after minor skin injuries. A detailed explanation is as follows:

A scar-prone constitution refers to a unique physical condition whereby the skin tissue tends to excessively proliferate during the healing process after trauma, resulting in the formation of scars. Although only a small proportion of people have this constitution, their scars may continue to grow following skin injury, becoming red in color, hardened in texture, and possibly accompanied by symptoms such as itching and pain. The occurrence of a scar-prone constitution may be related to genetic mutations or certain specific genotypes. Scars may appear on any part of the body, such as the chest, scapula, back, neck, knees, etc., and may be round, oval, or irregular in shape, protruding above the surface of normal skin. Additionally, scar-prone constitutions are more commonly seen among younger people, which may be related to the body's metabolic rate and hormone secretion levels.

In daily life, individuals should try to avoid injuries such as falls and bumps to reduce the likelihood of scar formation. At the same time, maintaining clean and dry skin and avoiding contact with irritants, such as cosmetic allergens, can help reduce the occurrence of skin inflammation, thus minimizing scar formation.
